Get the the blame game mug.Hym "TAKE EVERYTHING LEFT FROM ME! All! TO! BLAME! DURMDURMDURMDERMDURMDURM! DURMDURMDURMDERMDURMDURM (But palm muted)! DURM! DURM! DURM! DURM!🤘😝🤘 The Blame Game! That'll be the name of my Youtube news channel! Blame game. The. The Blame Game. And the interesting thing about 'Blame' (in general) is that it's more useful as a 'framing device' that it is as a 'mechanism for solution generation'. I'll give you an example: 'Good' people don't blame other people for their problems. By trying to blame other people your are now TO blame and are, therefore, the 'Bad' on. FAULT is irrelevant as the attempt to blame is perceived as admission of guilt. This how 'Blame' is used as a framing device. Now, here is an example of how it is useless as a solution generation mechanism: A person does a thing. They are to blame for doing said thing.... That is all. There is no deduction that can be made from this reality. Any deduction that CAN be made from this reality is little more than mythologizing. You said it was a war. The war on immorality has been raging for thousands of years (So no, no one alive has started anything here). There are some casualties. That is all. Enjoy your war."
